Today's parents deserve better than outdated course material, inexperienced instructors and incomplete training. We developed Pre-Baby Bootcamp to deliver modern parents the type of comprehensive preparation and evidence-based training they need and deserve.
What is Pre-Baby Bootcamp™?
Imagine getting all of your prenatal classes done in one weekend.
That’s Bootcamp.
Pre-Baby Bootcamp™ is the only live, virtual program taught by medical professionals that covers all of your prenatal courses. Over the course of two half-days (1 weekend), our program will teach you important skills you’ll need to prepare you physically and mentally for labor and parenthood. Our live, interactive curriculum and is fun and we not only provide content, but take live questions, walk you through demonstrations and provide feedback on how you’re doing. You will feel part of a community of other expecting parents sharing in their experiences alongside you.
We combined our knowledge and expertise as Labor and Delivery nurses and our real-life experiences as moms raising 6 kids combined, to bring you fully immersive experience that is unmatched by any other live or online program.
Want to know the best part? Pre Baby Bootcamp is INCLUDED as part of the annual membership on our Digital Parenting Platform, Nurture by NAPS. As an expecting parent, not only do you get Bootcamp, but you also get Infant and Child CPR, and a Sleep Consultation as part of your annual membership in addition to all of the other services, support, education, and community the platform has to offer. This is the most cost effected way to get all the support you need leading up to your baby’s due date through your first year as a parent.

“My husband and I recently took the virtual baby Bootcamp class. Emily, Jamie and the rest of the team were extremely informative (and funny!) and offered practical medical and “mom” advice. They also take the time to talk about topics that I imagine aren’t discussed in other classes, including communication with your spouse.”
“ I LOVE their style. It’s totally honest, realistic and empowering and really helped me feel like the decisions I’ve made so far are the right ones for me. One hundred percent would recommend Bootcamp to all expecting parents!”
